Surfing Dismount Ground Effects
**NOTE: Since April 24th 2024, this fix has been added to pokeemerald when compiling with BUGFIX enabled.
In vanilla emerald, the ground effects are not updated at the end of the surf dismount code. So if you dismount into tall grass, for example, you will appear over the grass. This is subtle but easily fixable so why not do so for consistency!
Before After
This fix is very simple. Open src/field_player_avatar.c and find the function Task_WaitStopSurfing. Before the line DestroyTask(taskId), add the following:
playerObjEvent->triggerGroundEffectsOnMove = TRUE;That's it!
